The story

The thinking behind it

Faux Fig Tree began as a question about restraint: how little can a faux botanicals piece do and still change a room. The answer, in the end, was one clear silhouette and one honest material.

It is made in small runs so the studio can stay close to every piece. Silk was chosen not for novelty but because it ages well, a surface that looks better in its fifth year than its first.

Specify it alone against plaster, or let it sit quietly inside a fuller scheme. It is designed to hold either position without argument.

Designer notes

Atelier Maison Studio

Design direction, Abuja

“We draw for the room, not the photograph. If a piece only works from one angle, it is not finished.”

The organic form is deliberately unornamented; the natural finish carries all of the character.
Scaled for living room and office settings with generous circulation around it.
Sight lines were tested at seated height first, standing height second.

We specified this for a client project and it photographed beautifully in low afternoon light. The finish is far softer in person than on screen.

It arrived blanket-wrapped and the team placed it exactly where I wanted it. The weight of it is the first thing you notice, and nothing about it feels light or temporary.
Quietly excellent

The material has aged exactly as described, slightly deeper, slightly warmer, six months in.

Understated in the best way. It doesn't announce itself, it just makes the room feel finished.
